When I flew down to Texas to pick up my car (I bought it from my brother), I carried on a license plate in my bag!
Right before the bag went through the machine, I said “It has a license plate in it.” The security guy looked at me, looked at the bag going through and said “Ok.”
I put my shoes back on, got my bag and went on my way.
I thought it was unbelievable they let me carry a large plate of thin metal on the plane in my bag!

Just flew first class to and from Beijing. They had new, shiny, sharp knives onboard with which to cut our steaks. And, of course, the glasses were made of glass and champagne and wine bottles always have been.
